Beschreibung
Dropout culture is on full display in this wild trip into the hinterlands, the story of America during one of its greatest decades, the 90s.
At once hilarious and crazed, lyrical and absurd, hopeful and fantastical, Ridiculous and Ill-Advised drops us into the world of DIY 1990s, where drugged-out skateboarders, radicalized demolition derby gods, and wild fairie artists grapple with the universal mysteries of love and economy, the possibility of success at making a living on their own terms.
Taking acid, writing garbage screenplays, skating pools, and playing in experimental noise bands. That was me before I met The Family.
